About this asset

Designed for controlled pedestrian access, this modern grey metal tripod turnstile Revit family features a dual-pedestal housing with rotating barrier arms. The unit features a bridge-style cabinet enclosure defined by two vertical rectangular support columns connected by a horizontal top bridge. Chamfered upper corners flank the top deck, incorporating recessed bezels intended for RFID card readers or directional display indicators. Positioned beneath the bridge structure is a spherical central rotor mechanism supporting three radial tubular barrier arms configured in a standard tripod array. Finished in a uniform neutral grey tone indicative of brushed stainless steel or powder-coated aluminium, the clean, angular geometry offers clear demarcation for controlled throughput corridors.

The download is a 389 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

Loaded as an RFA component into Revit project environments, this specialty equipment family can be hosted directly to level floor planes or slab edges. Modelled with crisp geometric definition, it coordinates cleanly in floor plans, interior elevations, and section views. Users can array multiple units in access control banks, align them with adjacent glazed partitions or guard railings, and assign custom project materials to the housing and rotating arms.

Commonly specified for commercial office lobbies, transit stations, corporate headquarters, sports venues, and educational facilities, this turnstile supports secure entrance planning during schematic design through construction documentation. It integrates naturally alongside reception desks, security check-in counters, and glass balustrades. Design teams and BIM coordinators searching for pedestrian turnstiles, optical barrier gates, security passage hardware, and access control equipment will find this asset ready for circulation space planning.
